Horizon view
Horizon from De Sitter F
80.0340° N, 49.7961° E · cell ZKE
- Highest horizon point
- De Sitter F: 13.9° above the horizontal, 10.3 km away at azimuth 330°.
- Farthest visible point
- 12.5 km away at azimuth 2°, 10.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,476 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 8.5° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 190° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 10.4°. At 2026-10-22 13:49:07 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 160 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
